What does NLP mean for augmented analytics?

#artificialintelligence

According to Gartner, NLP turns "text or audio speech into encoded, structured information, based on an appropriate ontology." Augmented analytics uses two subtypes of NLP, which are natural language understanding (NLU) and natural language generation (NLG). NLU enables the platform to understand a user's query while NLG "narrates" data visuals. NLU applies to text and audio. However, typed queries are more common than voice queries today for several reasons, most notably because the former is an easier problem to solve.
